Need good load for Speer #4203 bullet 38 cal.
A friend gave me a box of this bullet, 140 gr. .357" JHP by Speer. I don't have a copy of the Speer manual. anyone loaded for this bullet in 38 sp. or 357 mag?
thanks, Joe

I haven't shoot this bullet, but the Speer manual #14 lists Unique at 7.2 start load-8.0 grains max for the 140 gr. uchp in a 357 mag.
Let me know which powder you have and I'll post some loads for you out of the book.

Sure would not hurt to get the manual. Typos are just to easy to make. No one would steer you in the wrong direction, but it is nice to have some manuals. Just my thoughts.

thanks for the replies.
I looked up UCHP on the Speer webpage and it seems to be the most recent product Uni-Cor Hollow Point bullet in their jacketed product line. Does anyone know how that compares to their Jacketed Hollow Point bullet, the 4203 that I have? Would the load data be the same? I could compare the ballistic data listed on their webpage for both but how do you interpret any differences as far as loading goes, changes in powder type and amount? Joe
